Let's take a closer look:
"Hee hee, it's a penis! Here at the Louvre! oh boy, take a picture of me for the folks at home!"

Oh, and least we forget the actual crowdpleaser (just in case disfigured male genitalia isnt your thing); the lady with no arms, our very own Venus of Milo... somewhere behind the foreign gentleman with the straw hat. I tend to forget summer is always the worst season to 'enjoy' the Louvre... so many flip flops, shorts and beerbellies hidden under fanny packs.

The comparison between archaic canons of beauty and the crowd surrounding it. Just one look at the man on the floor, and I wanna run for the exit again. I haven't even seen people on the floor in the crappiest McDonalds, so what makes you think you can play doorstopper in here?

One corner for me to hide and have a 'quiet pic' for the finishing touch of this report on the hub of hypertourism in Paris.
